I also refuse to eat anything at office potlucks. No way.
Also cannot stand powder lemonade. I have a costco size econo tub of that crap I keep around for some reason. I didn't need that tooth enamel anyway.
Freeze some grapes in a freezer bag with a generous slathering of lemonade powder on it. It's a pretty decent summer treat and it's not as expensive as those overhyped tiny bags for like $9-11 for 250g.

Rinse them and make them wet so the powder sticks?

Yes, but don't leave a bunch of liquid in the bag. I usually put a piece of paper towel inside and give the bag a quick shake so that the grapes are damp, not wet.
Otherwise it'll drip to the bottom to become bottom grapes in lemonade sludge vs bag of grapes with sour powder (I made that mistake).

While I realize nothing is guaranteed, there's still a good chance that the food has been handled in a proper manner and sanitary protocols have been followed when eating restaurant food. You have no idea how potluck food was handled and prepared so I'm always willing to pass on what may very well be some delicious food because of my paranoia. I essentially get that look on my face like in that Seinfeld episode when Poppy puts the slice of pizza on his plate and he stares at it and cannot eat it.

We do this in the summer, but with jello powder - red grapes with raspberry jello powder is the fave here. Absolutely perfect on a hot day.

I went to some vendor parking lot lunch and beer thing yesterday. They had some sort of golf simulator where they had closest to the pin. Watching person after person trying to get it close. I am an average golfer at best 85-90 when I actually played more than a round a year.
Wasn't going to try because I don't want to re-open my chest that was sawed open a few months ago.
Looks fun I'll try it too. Swing light. 7 feet. Way better than every one. Chest felt rough but not scary. Duff the next one and third is 5 feet. Won a fatating putter. Best shots in two days of 100's of oil sales guys who golf for a living.
Maybe chest cracking is the Tommy John surgery but for golf and I'm good now.

Tacos make me happy. Perhaps there should be a taco thread. I could eat them every day.
I bought taco stands for myself about 2 years ago. And now everytime I make tacos I think these stands make tacos at least 10% better. Best purchase ever.
My Briggs and Stratton lawn mower. Got it 18 years ago. I’ve done zero maintenance. Put some year old gas in, primed it, starts on the first pull. Hasn’t run since September.

Taco stands are great. Was at a bbq hosted by a friend from So Cal. He marinated pork and chicken and grilled on the bbq. Corn tortillas are the best. I should get some masa and a tortilla press.
I like this recipe, and finish all my tacos this way (see step 3). It ends up between a taco and a quesadilla:

Mine started first try, but only because I remembered to put fuel stabilizer in last fall and ran it for a little to get in in the carb. When I don't do that it's an hour of faffing about cleaning out the carb and getting gas all over me. Forgetting comes with a big punishment.
I do see the potential for electric now, but I think I need to wait for it to really die. I hate replacing stuff that works.

My secret is premium gasoline.

I know I’m a heathen but hate corn tortillas and the filler places put on tacos. Whites should not make tacos.
Cannot stand when you can imagine a board meeting where someone has decided to make the business more profitable by adding slaw, cabbage, lettuce and drizzle. Look how big our tacos are? Like we are stupid. You make tacos, I buy them, best assume I’m not dumber than you and you are filling with worthless slaw and mayonnaise. I see what you are doing.
Fish taco. The fish should be detectable.
Can I get a leaf blower to blow all this slaw to the next table? Why not just put water chestnuts on everything. Another brutal vegetable.

A good stripped down street taco is a thing of wonder.
In fact, does anyone have a tip on the best street tacos in Calgary?

I also don't care for corn tortillas, flour are much better. Also who doesn't like white people tacos?! Ground beef, seasoning and some veggies - can't beat it for the 10min meal it is. Pro tip for white people tacos is to use a small can of tomato sauce instead of water to season the meat.
I love authentic Mexican food, but white people taco night is a staple in our house.

Nah, white people should be banned from making stir fry as well. Barf. and Indian food. and Thai food.
